Gwen Marcy is a free-lance forensic artist, called to Pikeville, Kentucky, to help identify a serial rapist. The latest victim lies in a hospital bed, badly beaten and barely able to talk. The local sheriff also asks Gwen to help identify the decomposed body of a man found dead in the forest, apparently about a month after he died of snakebite. Gwen takes her usual photographs and measurements and returns to her hotel to draw the most likely appearance of his face. Gwen herself is almost hit by an accelerating car near the hotel.
